What do you guys think?

Hi,
I have always wanted a 1981 Topps Billy Sims Rookie PSA/BGC 10 .....what do you guys think of this is this dodgy? Do you think I could purchase and send for regrading by PSA/BCG?

What a crock

Along with Beckett and PSA, GRA has established itself as an industry leader in the grading of premium quality sportscards.

Just because a card is "graded" (and I use the term loosely) doesnt mean that you should trust the grade unless it is from a reputable company.

If there are raw cards out there that you could pick up cheaper, then do that and send it in yourself.

EDIT or just buy the PSA one ready to go!

Thanks I am watching this one but it is a 9.......I am hoping there is a 10 out there....do you know were you can check what grades are in hte population? I think PSA has a list somewhere of what has come through their services.....

Yep - PSA has a list but you have to be a member.

Lucky I am

7 x 10's, 58 x 9's, 55 x 8's, 4 x 9Q's, 3 x 8Q's (Q is with qualifier)

This is the complete list - hope it comes out ok and you can read it.

NO	NAME	     1-2	3-4	5	6	7	7Q	8	8Q	9	9Q	10	TOTAL
100	BILLY SIMS     1	 0	 3	 1	 4	 2	 55	 3	 58	 4	 7	 138
